‘This book is a welcome addition to the growing literature on Irish aviation. In what is obviously a labour of love, Michael Traynor, who published the book himself, lists all aircraft that went through Iona, their history and provenance. Even seasoned aviation buffs will find something new.'

‘This is a well-researched, professionally produced and very readable book. It sets Iona within its context in Irish aviation history and is certainly the definitive work on the Cahill family and its commercial aviation business, which extended over three generations. It is a most valuable addition to Irish aviation literature.'

- An Cosantóir – Journal of the Irish Defence Forces

‘This is a handsome hardback volume, at a relatively modest price, about a comparatively little-known airline, Iona National Airways, founded in 1930. Full-page panels comprehensively detail the individual histories of Iona’s aircraft from the Thirties. While Iona may no longer exist, the number of aircraft – covering a 70-year period and scattered around the world, both active and inactive – is extensive.'
